Did the bear also eat the kayak or did he eat the kayak's contents and spit
out the kayak?

Sort of like whether you eat the insides only of a piece of fruit or both
the insides and the outsides.



In "Seekers of the Horizon", Will Nordby, Ed., 1989, p. 107, there is an
account of someone travelling in a blue and gray Folbot being killed and
eaten by
a bear in the Glacier Bay vicinity.  Actually that was more of a camping
fatality.
